Personalized Learning: Development and Implementation of Individual Educational Trajectories to Enhance the Quality of Students' Knowledge

The article explores the relevance of personalized learning within the context of educational reforms in Ukraine, particularly concerning the New Ukrainian School (NUS), upper secondary school reforms, the challenges of wartime, and blended learning. The potential of personalized learning, through the development and implementation of individual educational trajectories, to enhance the quality of students' academic achievements is substantiated. The scientific works of leading domestic and foreign researchers, which reveal the theoretical foundations and practical aspects of personalized learning, are analyzed. The results of a study on the readiness of future teachers at Odesa I.I. Mechnikov National University to implement personalized learning from 2023 to 2025 are presented. Questionnaires, testing, and interviews were employed. The diagnostic stage revealed an insufficient level of theoretical knowledge and practical skills among students in this area. The formative stage involved changes in the "Pedagogy" course and the teaching practice program. The control stage demonstrated a positive dynamic after the implementation of the changes. Recommendations for improving the preparation of future teachers for the implementation of personalized learning are developed, encompassing updates to curricula, the use of educational technologies, the development of diagnostic skills, the creation of individualized tasks, and cooperation with participants in the educational process.
